How do you like to eat your pie? Crust-first? With whipped cream? As you enjoy your slice of pie on Pi Day, join us as we take a look at some of our latest pie charts on federal programs and spending.

Pie as an award

We recently examined how much money U.S. agencies pledged for democracy assistance in FY12-16 and how they obligated the funds. This pie chart illustrates the type and number of awards from USAID.

Global gourmet?

Comparing one pie to another

DOD civilian employees who get hurt on the job are covered under the Federal Employees’ Compensation Act program, which works to return injured employees to work and provides compensation for work-related disabilities.

The pie charts in our report on banking regulations show the magnitude of bank closures in 3 border communities—which may lead to decreased services for residents and businesses.
